According to Essien Ndueso, the Special Assistant to the Akwa-Ibom state Governor on Media, an Akwa-Ibom man opted to ‘swim to the great beyond’ in a fish shaped casket.

The man posted that with the caption: “Could it be that the man loved eating fish, or he was a fisherman or came from the great ‘Iyak’ family? I witnessed this scene on Nwaniba road this morning around St Luke’s Hospital. Note, I didn’t say the man turned into a fish o, I only saw a fishlike casket. Perhaps my friend Uwemedimoh Umanah who owns a fish farm and also loves fisherman soup can explain this better why a man would choose to swim to eternal glory. Happy weekend folks.”
